I have no idea what you are talking about.

[I] kde-base/okular
     Available versions:  (4) 4.12.5-r1(4/4.12)^t (~)4.13.3(4/4.13)^t
       {aqua chm crypt debug djvu dpi ebook +handbook +jpeg mobi +pdf
+postscript +tiff}


There's nothing in there about audio or video. There's only images and
of those only 4 rational ones are enabled by default plus the help system.

So what is the real problem exactly again?
